Gorilla Zoe: Welcome To The Zoo (Review)

The commercial success of Yung Joc and his debut, New Joc City, made Block Entertainment a household name, but for how long? Based off of the current underwhelming album sales of Joc's sophomore effort, Hustlenomics as well as the much delayed re-up from Boyz in the Hood, the label is quickly losing momentum and we all know how Diddy deals with unprofitable situations.

If you don't, reference the dismemberment of Da Band and various other acts that stayed in the red for too long. Fortunately for Block Ent., they scored a mildly successful hit this summer with the bass heavy “Hood Figga” that introduced the snarling, baritone of newcomer, Gorilla Zoe. The Atlanta native, on his album Welcome to the Zoo (Bad Boy), plans on staking his claim as king of the jungle while simultaneously pumping the brakes on any talk of his label's demise.
